PROTOCOLS(5) File Formats Manual PROTOCOLS(5)NAME
protocols - protocol name data base
DESCRIPTION
The protocols file contains information regarding the known protocols used in the DARPA Internet. For each protocol a single line should
be present with the following information:
official protocol name
protocol number
aliases
Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. A ``#'' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end
of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.
Protocol names may contain any printable character other than a field delimiter, newline, or comment character.
FILES
/etc/protocols
SEE ALSO getprotoent(3N)BUGS
A name server should be used instead of a static file.

INTERACTION WITH DIRECTORY SERVICES
Processes generally find protocol records using one of the getprotoent(3) family of functions. On Mac OS X, these functions interact with
the DirectoryService(8) daemon, which reads the /etc/protocols file as well as searching other directory information services to determine
protocol name and number information.
FILES
/etc/protocols

The protocols file format appeared in 4.2BSD.
